Although most of us are thinking about Black Friday, Christmas and New Year, the reality is that spring isn’t all that far away, particularly in terms of event planning and meeting organisation.
The first quarter of the year is the ideal time for teams to gather, share ideas and plan for the months ahead. The Christmas hiatus and focus on festivities does however mean that plans for early Q1 events can take a little longer to sort as decisions are put off, people are out of the office and the idea of 2023 still somehow seems so far away.
It’s a perfect time to book Q1 and spring events and meetings at Barbican
The reality though, as every good PA knows, is that there is only five weeks until Christmas and in just 10 weeks, January will already be behind us as we rush headlong into February, then half terms and before you blink it will be Easter.
Here at the Barbican, we are doing everything we can to continue making life easier for our PA clients at this busy time of the year. In particular, our Frobisher suites, along with the other spaces available on Level 4, offer a great balance of value, facilities, ease of use, simple booking processes and flexibility. In addition, they are undergoing some refurbishment work over the winter to freshen them up, including carpets, paintwork and heating upgrades.
A number of clients have found that exclusive use works extremely well for their events due to the self-contained nature of the Frobisher meeting spaces on Level 4. The various rooms can be adjusted to seat the specific needs of a client with no need to worry about other users. It is the perfect place to discuss commercially sensitive information – in fact, with exclusive use no one would even know you are having the meeting other than the attendees and our team.
Barbican is one of the City’s best events and meeting spaces
For those looking for a little less space but maximum impact and ease, our Frobisher Boardroom is one of the City’s best spaces for up to 20 guests. Not only does it have all the facilitates you would expect and need for board style meetings, but it is bookable online.
All events at the Barbican are supported by both our sales and event management teams, who have years of experience ensuring client needs are met and exceeded. And for those looking for catering, our long-term partnership with Searcy’s means creative, tasty and nourishing food options are available for all.
Finally, it is also worth reflecting on just how easy it is to get to the Barbican. Even before the Elizabeth Line opened, we were one of London’s best located venues. Now it is even better! We are just minutes from all the major transport hubs, have dedicated underground stations, traffic free walking routes and a of course a wealth of other transport options.
With so much to offer and time running out to book for Q1, the Barbican is the perfect place to make sure 2023 starts with a bang. So put a spring in your step next spring by reaching out for a chat or site inspection.
